Ch 19 : A way

"ROARR!!!!!"

Even though the Goblin Lord had entered into such a berserk state that the level of pain had been toned down a lot, the continuous attack from Cade and Luna still caused the anger on the Goblin Lord's heart to surge.

Their attacks were all unleashed at close range. This kind of distance did not allow him to fully use his greatsword.

Although he could try to forcefully break free and allow him to pull some distance away, Cade, who was the support in this battle, always positioned himself that he would always be able to intercept the Goblin Lord's every movement.

It was nothing to be proud of, but because he had been beaten too much, Cade was very receptive toward where Goblin Lord could retaliate, and he always cut his way before the Goblin Lord could truly break free. Therefore, it was utterly futile no matter how the Goblin Lord tried to create some distance between them.

The Goblin Lord, who had lost the space to use his move, was undoubtedly a great tragedy when engaging in close combat with both Luna and Cade.

Nonetheless, Cade's Spectre Dullahan was not terrifying. What was frightening was Luna's attacking power, and without the firepower that Luna has, the two would not be able to gain this upper hand.

Inside the Examiner's room, Isabel and Elizabeth were watching this scene with the other examiners.

Most of the examiners here praised Luna for her strength, but Elizabeth actually had a different thought.

" Hmm, what is it, Ms. Elizabeth?"

Isabel, who was on her side, noticed this strangeness and asked. The other might not notice it, but Isabel could clearly see Elizabeth's mood.

" *Sigh* Nothing. It's just, I think that if this was all he could do, then he might not pass the requirement to enter our university. And… they might lose soon."

The shock from Elizabeth's words was clear in Isabel's voice. Until now, the two had done a pretty good job managing the Goblin Lord, so why would Elizabeth say things like this? But before Isabel could ask any further, something happened on the screen.

Inside, the Goblin Lord suddenly broke through the encircling of Cade and Luna, and it burst out with power that was very close to Rank (IV).

" What happen!?"

" I don't know. Is this a bug? Why haven't I been informed about this!?"

" Wait, there's no use bickering here. Shouldn't we rescue them first?"

There was a lot of commotion in the Examiner's room. Most of them didn't know what was happening.

Indeed, for the last part of the exam, the Goblin Lord, only a select few universities knew about it, and coincidentally the Orion university as one of the five great universities, was among them.

The situation which was previously on Cade and Luna's side was reversed, and now Elizabeth couldn't help but get curious about what the two might do in this kind of situation.

. . . . . . . .

Inside the examination room, Cade and Luna currently had a gloomy expressions.

They thought they would finally pass the exam, only to face a sudden turn-around from the Goblin Lord.

But it was not the worst thing. When the Goblin Lord suddenly burst just now, Luna was injured as she was caught off-guard, and the two now were at the very end of their stamina.

The most they could do was another one or two minutes, and after that, they would be no longer able to maintain the Arcane Card summoning.

Just as Cade thought there was no way to turn the situation and was hesitating to give up, a sound came from his pendant.

" Hahahahaha, what is this? Struggling against a weak opponent, I see?"

After the whole time he didn't show up, Grigory's voice once again resounded in Cade's mind, but this time it was full of mocking.

Yet, Cade didn't feel offended at all by this mocking. Rather, he suddenly had an idea when Grigory's voice resounded. One thing about Grigory was he had lived long enough to almost know about any things.

Eyeing this situation, Cade helplessly sighed. He laughed bitterly in his heart, "Well, it couldn't be helped, isn't it? By the way, does Lord Grigory have any way to get me out of this situation?"

"Ke ke, it is indeed not difficult." Maybe because he was called Lord Grigory by Cade, Grigory was in a pretty good mood.

"After all, every monster had its own weakness. This Goblin Lord's weakness might be a bit hidden compared to the other Goblin, but it doesn't mean it doesn't have any weakness." Grigory's voice sounded in Cade's heart.

Cade listened to Grigory's words and nodded. He who had played the game naturally knew that every monster indeed has its own weakness. It's just he didn't know before what the Goblin Lord's weakness was.

This time, Grigory's voice was bringing a strand of hope to Cade.

After some moments of useless bickering, Grigory eventually gets to the main point.

" This time, the Goblin Lord's weakness is sound."

" Sound?"

Regarding this, Cade was caught dumbfounded. What was this cliche turn around? Should he scream at the ear of the Goblin Lord just like a loud-shounen protagonist?

Fortunately, Grigory was very quick to clarify things.

" Well, even though I said his weakness was sound, it isn't just any voice. You need to use the sound of certain Db to be able to hit this weakness. But don't worry though, isn't this where your phone comes to use?"
